RUSH, GEORGE, from Schoharie, N.Y., 1775, settled in
the east part of the town near Danby. He died in 1820, aged one hundred
and ten years, having attained a greater age than any other person who ever
lived in town. He had two sons: Jacob and Aboltus. Jacob settled in
Rush Hollow, but soon left town. Aboltus left one daughter, who married
Obadiah Kelly, of Wallingford. Their oldest daughter married Samuel
Thompson, who owns the Joseph Armstrong farm. Their son, Holden Kelly,
owns the Joshua Hulett farm. There are in town six of the fifth generation
from George Rush.
